 Replying to [comment:3 MarkDoliner]:
 > And yes, AIM uses 32-bit unsigned integers to indicate the size of the
 file.  So you DEFINITELY can't transfer a file bigger than 4GB using
 Pidgin.  If you manage to transfer a file bigger than that using two
 WinAIM clients then please let me know.

 using aim version 6 i was able to transfer a 5 gb tv recording i made,
 whereas i couldn't with pidgin due to the misreported size (5 gb mod 4 gb
 ended up reporting it as 1gb)
